I recently confessed to my daughters that I made prank calls when I was a youth. What was most embarrassing though was that I did it after leaving school and not at their age (10 & 12).
The moral of the story was that if you perform such pranks, the secret is to do it from a public phone. Calling number display is a terrible hindrance to prank calls; some school friends of my youngest daughter were recently caught out because of this when they made some prank calls on Mothers’ Day.
So having escaped the wrath of my parents for performing silly pranks, I now face the disgust of my own children who are horrified that their ever-so-righteous father is (or has been) less mature than them at an age when he should know better. tsk tsk!

Good one miss Ella. I used to think that when you get older some things will change, and you’ll become a totally different person. But at some point you just realize that it’s the same thing, you are what you are. So yeah, you got to push yourself sometimes, and it does suck at moments… Just realized I gotta email someone, something I was putting off for 8 months…

You know, one day… a random, wildly-festooned, non-prepaid pizza just might show up on YOUR doorstep Ella Morton, you naughty girl!!!

(and no, I don’t mean that as some kind of script treatment for a dirty movie set in the 80’s)

(+also apparently, The un-ordered pizza actually is worth nibbling! … … -little Socrates-pizza pun, there… [crickets] …is this thing on? ::taptaptap:: )

Steven: Yes. Also, Paul is dead. And there was a second shooter on the grassy knoll.

P.S. The eagle flies at midnight.

Is this supposed to be a metaphor subtly condemning those who are worried about the possible consequences of the health care bill?

That is such an adorable story!

I too was a goody two shoes. The worse thing I did was pull a prank on the vice principal in high school. Ballsy? Yes. But it was worth it and he loved the prank.

Now I KNOW this is impossible. A story with:
a number of reasonable people
in a not-bizarre (or dangerous, or sexual) situation
with a series of measured and levelheaded responses**
and a realistic, optimistic conclusion?

Have you read The Internet lately??? :p

** Well, I’ll leave the crazy “rehearsing a play” part of the story out of this characterization for now.

Seriously, the non-Jerry-Springer-ness of this story is very cool. Thanks for sharing with us
Also, I hope you learned your lesson about putting any schemehatchery in writing.
